Did you know that there was the 220 pro without CI?
I wanted to update mine and it just didn't work.
I then turned to Devialet and they told me that I have a 220 Pro without Core Infinity.

The Expert Pro range was released around 2016 without the CI board which was still in development. Purchasers were promised a free upgrade with the CI board when it was released. The board was released in late 2017 and Expert Pro owners then started getting their amps upgraded with the board.
I bought my 130 Pro in early 2017 without the board and had the board installed in early 2018.
Check with Devialet again to see if you're eligible for the free upgrade.

Yes, they already told me that I will get the upgrade for free but it was still a surprise for me.

My 220 pro came back last weekend and it sounds great.
I don‘t really know why they upgrade it. They could send you a new one and get the old back. The upgrade is like a new 220! Probably all internals are changed.
It was a long journey but I finally found my amp and I had a lot amps at home!
